A versatile dress – Dress it up or dress it down

June 9, 2018

When I saw this dress, I really wanted to style it for several reasons. It was available at a discounted price for $36. It also has the prettiest floral details and this gold color is what I’ve been reaching for lately. The subtle pink details on the dress are intriguing to me. It’s such a versatile summer dress I thought it could be dressed up or dressed down. So I’m showing you how I’m styling it 2 ways, only changing a couple accessories and hairstyle. Meaning you could literally spend just a couple minutes and go from a day look to a night look with this dress!

Dress it up

I’m going to show you how I dress it up first. Because it’s more fun to dress up (in my opinion anyways). I wanted to bring out the subtle pink details on the dress, hence I paired it with my pink acrylic Cult Gaia bag, and pink Kendra Scott earrings. Lunch or dinner date, showers, garden weddings, you name it. This look is playful but still elegant.

Dress it down

But you don’t always get to dress up. Sometimes you just want a cute outfit to go around town, visit a tourist attraction, maybe meet up with your girlfriends for coffee. Throw on kitten heels, a cute tote bag and you’re ready to head out the door!

The chance of drawing the Secret Labubu character The chance of drawing the Secret Labubu character “Duo Duo” is 1:72, a rare one! ——— we only found that out later on our drive home! 😄🤎
Yes we are late to the game at this point 🤪. When we got our very FIRST Labubu blind box in the store, the lady had offered that she had a green on hand so if we didn’t like ours, bring it in and trade right away with her. So we unboxed in the car. Got a brown, wasn’t quite what we wanted but I decided to keep because my guts told me to. Then I later looked up to see what the character names were, and the Internet had also told me Duo Duo is a rare 1 in 72!! 🥹

We are now freaking out we have a Secret Labubu as our very first one! 😍
